Shoal heart stepping stone
among the muddy shallows
a trustworthy friend

    These are beautiful words. They remind me of Tennyson's famous line from a poem he wrote:
    "we rise on stepping stones of our dead selves to higher things." I am not sure why that came to mind. Here you are speaking of a stepping stone in the shape of a heart protecting you from the mud, something known and trusted. Somehow it made me think of a launching place to something new, a higher experience. Either way, I like it.
    xo,

    Interesting how there can be so many interpretations, whether intended by the poet or otherwise.I was thinking of friends being our crutch and not minding the fact that they are our stepping stones.

    I would love to stumbled upon this stone...out walking in the shoal.

    I love Noelle's comment, she has such a way of find beautiful connections in images and words.

    lovely

    I love how this beautiful heart lifts you up when the going gets muddy--a true friend. Beautiful image created in this haiku and photo, Gemma.

    I never see heart shaped rocks.
    Maybe I don't look hard enough.
    hugs
